Congratulations to Aaron Woods, Josh Mansour, Dylan Walker, Daniel Tupou, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak and Jason Taumalolo on their debuts.

Surprised Papalii is there, don't think he had a great year.

I think this will be a close game.

The New Zealand team looks pretty good. Could an upset be looming?

cant believe they picked SKD over gerard beale tbh. whare and beale are IMO the best centres in the NRL.

SKD was close to the Chooks best back for the majority of this year. suprised me as I never really rated him, but after this year I have had a change of mind

Serious?
SKD is miles ahead of beale…beales gone backwards

 

[Tim Sheens]

I am generally up for giving youngsters a shot, but cannot understand Klemmer getting selected in the squad ahead of Maguire and others.

 

[tig_prmz]

Beale was made to play at fullback the last few rounds but when he was at centre, he was absolutely killing it the first few rounds. He had a good partnership going with Widdop.

SKD has that awkwardness about him but that's all I see in him tbh. I don't see him as a test centre.

Good to see Adam Blair pick as a starting prop for NZ. i'm not saying he deserves it. but it will be good to see how he goes against Woods and Sam Thaiday.

If he's goes well in the four nations. he must be a good chance of starting with Woods as the Tigers props come 2015.
